COMMENT AND OPINION.

THE sort of railroad enterprise the people
want is that which will enable them to travel in
the greatest possible safety. After this they
will accept the luxuries of travel as fast as the
railroads care to supply them. But safety is
the first thing to be thought of. The car-stove
is a constant menace to the passenger.-Atlanta
Constitution.
IF the Republican party is right. barriers
against foreign competition, with free land for
every industrious settler, do moro to upiift the
condition of the worker, more to insure his IN
dependence. more to discharge the duty of the
state to its laboring citizens, than can be done
by all the theories of Mr.. George and his asso-
ciates.-New York Tribune.
IT seems at this distance as if one court and
one Judge in New York is created for the pur-
pose of interfering with the DEGREES of the others.
One Judge sentences Sharp and another grants
a stay. One court afirms his sentence and the
Judge Of another interposes bis stay. Thus it
seems that the judicial system of New York was
designed to prevent the speedy punishment of
offenders. -Boston Journal
GREAT BRITAIN is a bully in Japan, keeping
the people poor and the government with a
wholly inadequate revenue, in order to pour
upon them English goods. If Japan shows the
least sign of asserting Independence the British
minister sends for man-of-war. The French
and German ministers, ana now the Spanish,
are almost as dictatorial but Englands attitude
towards Janau Is decidedly PROFESSIONALS" and

THE great and important step to be taken,
though, is that suggested by Secretary Lamar.

to the President as much of partisan flavor

hydraulic mining question, and to survey
the navigable rivers of the State with a
view to their restoration, are Objectionable
only in not specifying the kind of mining

ing only has been the cause of complaint

the facts, and the valley, being conscious
of the justice of its cause, has nothing to
fear. fit is possible for Federal engineers

STANFORD's STABLES.
Those Provided for His Horses at the
National Capital.

by Telegraph
NEW YoRK. March 9th.-The Suns
Washington special correspondent has
been interviewing Senator Stanford, who
said You can rent ans body's house any
where, If you pay enough for it, What you
can't rent is good stable for your horses
Yesterday the Senator began to move into
his new stables on l. street. The $1,000
landau, which Brewster made for him a
year ago, required the enlarging of the ele-
vator by three feet in length before it could
be taken up into the carriage-room on the
second floor. The stable has cost so far
S35, 900, and is not fully completed. 1t is
60x130, and has every convenience known
horsemen. There are bathrooms for the
horses, footmen and grooms parlors and
bedrooms for the latter, and the beautiful
gold-plated harness has apartments for
its good keeping that would bring
tears OF gratitude to the eyes of the
most obdurate coachman. Senator Stan
ford has but five horses here now,
but will bring five more with him next
December. These will be trotters, with
the exception of one or two thoroughbreds.
Stanford himself never rides horseback,
but he has several saddles in artistically
designed saddle-brackets in his harness
room, and he keeps good riding-horses
on the Palo Alto farm. He takes pleas
ure in offering his thoroughbreds TO
his friends, and Secretary Fairchild, Mr..
Bancroft and Librarian Spof6rd are down
in his mind for ride next fall on some of
his superb animals. Stanford is the only
Senator or Congressman who keeps cow,
and his pretty Jersey has a neatly
finished stall all to herself adjoining
the big open stalls intended for
the Senator's huge carriage blacks.
The floor on which these two horses
stand is said to be the best that can be
made for horses. 1t is concreted in three
inch squares, with perfect dip and drain
age, and over the concrete is laid a two
inch oak floor, which was caulked under
the Senator's own eye by sailors brought
from the navy yard.
